WIP Ant Wars

Don't use Crypt Fiend models, use the Nerubian ones, there are variations and they look more like ants and less like spidery dead things.
 
I'm sure there are also models for various insects on TheHive, if you want to check it out. The banner link is on the left side of the page.
 
Attached map is an old ant map I was working on.

I would post notes here, but apperently Windows enjoys installing a program on your computer when you restore it, and than asks for a cd-key (which the computer did not ship with) in order to run it.
The fucking hell is that?


Anyway, I don't have wc3 installed at the moment so I can't check exactly what's in it.
The main trigger in it allows a huge amount of information to be tied to any individual unit, much more than the custom value allows.
I added 25,000 to coordinates when saved on to the unit because it removes negative numbers, and 4(or less) digit numbers. When the coordinates are called, they are subtracted by 25,000 to get the real coordinates.

The purpose of this system was to create very frantic looking battles;
1: Unit is ordered by player. order cords are stored on the unit.
2: when an ant attacks it is given an order to move within X distance of the attacked unit. These order coords are not recorded and are ignored.
3: Unit reaches last order (from attacking unit) it is than ordered to it's original, stored order location.

I did not have the time to code in support for order-type I believe, but I may be wrong.

Once it stops moving, it's ordered to it's orignal move location


EDIT: TheHelper has incredibly low upload space. So no map I guess until I find a place to host it, instead of hosting it on this crappy site.

    My Xbox account got hijacked, and apparently I have a different one from like 10 years ago that Microsoft keeps telling me is the right one
  • Varine Varine:
    Like NO, I mean for some reason that one is attached to my email, but it's not the right one
  • Varine Varine:
    I have a different one, and that one has my credit card attached to it and I would like that credit card to not be attached to it if I can't get it back
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway Microsoft is not very helpful with this, they just keep telling me to fill out the Account Recovery form, but that just redirects me to the other account
  • The Helper The Helper:
    They should not allow you to put a credit card on a account that does not have human customer service you can call
  • Varine Varine:
    That's the only thing that got hijacked at least. I don't totally know how these integrate together, but it seems like I should be able to do this via the gamertag. Like my email is still mine, but they changed the email to that account I'm guessing.
